#### Default Feature Tolerance

Default Feature Tolerance area

The Default Feature Tolerance area, enabled when you select the Feature Type option from the Apply Defaults Based On area, lets you define default dimension tolerances based on individual feature types.

This capability only applies for legacy dimensions.

Whenever you manually create a location dimension or whenever PC-DMIS creates any dimension automatically (due to the Auto Dimension Setup button), the default dimension tolerance associated with that feature type is used, unless that same feature type already exists in the measurement routine. In that case, PC-DMIS instead uses the tolerance for the existing feature for any new automatic dimensions of that same feature type. This way you only need to modify the tolerance once for a feature type and PC-DMIS uses that same tolerance for other features of the same type throughout the rest of your measurement routine.
